Brief Summary:
AİM:The aim of this study is to control the fears and anxieties of Type 2 diabetics in insulin injection and blood glucose measurement with motivational videos and Ice applications to be applied with virtual reality glasses.
Material and Methods: The research is designed as a semi-experimental model with pretest-posttest control groups. The research will be carried out in the endocrine services located in Turgut Özal Medical Center in Malatya province. The universe of the research will be 2113 Type 2 diabetes patients who are being treated in the hospital specified on the specified dates, who are injecting insulin and following blood sugar. According to the analysis of the power, the sample of the research is composed of an experiment effect of 0.5% with bilateral significance level, 95% confidence interval determined with 5% error level, the experiment group to be applied with 80% Reality with 80% representation power, and the control group with 80 ice application. will create a total of 240 Type 2 diabetes patients.In the collection of the data, the Participant Presentation Form developed by the researcher, Diabetes Fear of Self Injecting and Self-testing Questionnaire-D-FISQ, State Anxiety Scale and VAS will be used.
Detailed Description:
VR is a relatively new human-computer interaction tool in which a person becomes an active participant in a virtual world. Sensory cues of VR, especially the precise control of auditory, tactile and olfactory systems, enhances the reality of the virtual environment. As a result, users feel that they can look around and enter the simulated environment. The virtual environment provides sensory information such as visual, auditory, movement, virtual or artificial, and makes the individual feel similar to real life.
Ice application has been used as a topical pain reliever for centuries. It works through a variety of mechanisms, such as slowing the transmission of peripheral nerve fibers, promoting sensory competition, and reducing the release of inflammatory and nociceptive mediators. Ice application is cheap, easily accessible and reaches its purpose relatively quickly to skin anesthesia. Apart from these effects, it also reduces pain by activating the Door-Control mechanism, stimulating the touch receptors and increasing the release of endogenous opioids.
